Opening Day [OPEN]

WHO: EVERYONE
WHAT: Mingle/Figure out Room Assignments/Meet old friends again
WHERE: The whole campus.
WHEN: September 1st, 2018
WARNING(S): None. If anything goes into warning territory, please create a new log for it.




For all of the newcomers, welcome to Professor Xavier’s Institute of Higher Learning! For all of our returning students and staff, welcome back! Once Professor Xavier’s welcome speech wraps up, it’s time for everyone to get themselves situated in their dorms and, more importantly, get to know your fellow mutants! Even if you’re not sharing rooms, you’ll still be sharing the same campus with each other, so don’t be afraid to get used to all of those new faces! Or even catch up on old ones! You have options; don’t be afraid to use them.

[[ ooc: This is the general mingling post for all of our characters to get settled into their rooms, get to know each other, reminisce with old friends, all that jazz. The log will be split into multiple locations. ]]

[She looks at it for a second. Right. No need to be flat-out rude just because she's in a perpetually bad mood...

So a hesitant weak handshake with her refusing to make eye contact is what he gets.]


...Well, that doesn't always mean we'll have the same classes, of course...

[What a nice girl!]

Ah, I know...To be honest, this is my first day ever attending a real school! Having classmates at all is pretty exciting!

I hope we can become great friends! [Oh, he finally lets go of her hand.]

Is it okay if I ask your name?
tatatarata: (pic#7053504)

[personal profile] tatatarata 2014-09-04 05:50 pm (UTC)(link)
[Raising an eyebrow at that. Never been to a class...it's probably rude to ask.]

Uh...it's Takane.
drawitagain: (48)

[personal profile] drawitagain 2014-09-04 05:59 pm (UTC)(link)
Nice to meet you, Takane!

[He motions to the couch he was sitting on.]

Would you like to sit down? I know standing around can get pretty exhausting. And I'm just doodling by myself, so...

[He tries to look as friendly as possible as he asks, wearing an especially bright smile. The truth is he is so very excited. A potential friend...please don't mess this up, Haruka! He ignores the small knot forming in his stomach.]
tatatarata: (pic#7053759)

[personal profile] tatatarata 2014-09-04 10:14 pm (UTC)(link)
I can handle standing just fine...

[How long does he think she's planning to stick around...]
drawitagain: (50)

[personal profile] drawitagain 2014-09-04 11:06 pm (UTC)(link)
Sure, sure! [Ahaha, well, nobody said making new friends would be easy. She probably has better stuff to do. Or maybe she's having a bad day. It's okay Haruka, not everyone is going to want to hang out with you. It'll probably take you a while to find close friends like normal kids have. He tries hard to get his mind off his nervousness, but ultimately fails. Smiling wearily, he grips his pencil and attempts to go back to sketching.

His anxiousness however, made him lose sense of his strength output.

And the top half of the pencil is ripped off and sent flying into the distance, just barely missing taking Takane's ear off.

Haruka glances over at the remains of the pencil in his hand, and then at the other half now situated at the furthest wall.

Turns to Takane with an extremely nervous chuckle.]


...Hey! That was pretty close, huh? M-My bad! [DON'T BE MAD.]
tatatarata: (pic#7053266)

[personal profile] tatatarata 2014-09-06 04:21 am (UTC)(link)
What was that for?!

[She's never seen a pencil move that fast before.]
drawitagain: (47)

[personal profile] drawitagain 2014-09-06 04:26 am (UTC)(link)
A-a-a-accident! [Raises his hands in surrender.]

I didn't realize how much pressure I was putting on it...

I-It happens a lot, I swear! It just...usually doesn't...get so much distance, wow.
tatatarata: (Default)

[personal profile] tatatarata 2014-09-07 04:30 am (UTC)(link)
Is your mutant power destruction of pencils or something?

[That's sarcasm, of course.]
drawitagain: (42)

[personal profile] drawitagain 2014-09-07 04:35 am (UTC)(link)
[Haruka laughs pretty hard at that.]

It feels like it sometimes, but no!

I'm just really strong. And sometimes I forget how strong I'm capable of being...

Pretty boring power, I know. It's caused me quite a bit of trouble. [It's also the reason he isn't dead but he makes an effort not to mention his illness to people he just met.]

So many people can do such interesting things here! It's so impressive! All I'm really good for is lifting heavy things and running fast.
tatatarata: (pic#7053939)

[personal profile] tatatarata 2014-09-07 04:37 am (UTC)(link)
Well at least you won't have any trouble with all the fighting and stuff, I guess. Everyone makes such a big deal out of it.
drawitagain: (52)

[personal profile] drawitagain 2014-09-07 04:41 am (UTC)(link)
[Haruka looks away nervously.]

I'm not so sure, actually.

Punching people is...I wouldn't want to hurt anyone! And I'm strong enough that I could really do a lot of damage to someone if I did, so...I'd rather just, help out in other ways!
tatatarata: (pic#7053728)

[personal profile] tatatarata 2014-09-07 04:53 am (UTC)(link)
You know they make everyone here do that kinda stuff, right?
drawitagain: (48)

[personal profile] drawitagain 2014-09-07 05:02 am (UTC)(link)
[Haruka laughs ambiguously. Probably difficult to discern if its sincere or a nervous coverup.]

Sounds like I'm gonna have a hard time here!

I really just want to draw. And eat. And sleep. [He looks at her with a smile.] Those are the things I like best.

I feel like I got the wrong powers, but I guess mutants can't be choosers, huh?

[Haruka pokes himself absentmindedly with the eraser of his now bifurcated pencil.]

Hey, I have an idea! What if I found a partner for the combat classes who's mutant ability was something like intangibility! Then I wouldn't have to worry about accidentally hurting anyone! [Gringrin. Oh Haruka. You are a genius.]
tatatarata: (Default)

[personal profile] tatatarata 2014-09-07 05:12 am (UTC)(link)
Doesn't that kind of defeat the purpose?

[This guy is definitely...simple.]
drawitagain: (41)

[personal profile] drawitagain 2014-09-07 05:16 am (UTC)(link)
It's just a class, right? So as long as I have the skills they teach me, it shouldn't matter whether my partner is tangible or not! {Again, so pleased with his own logic.]

Say...You wouldn't happen to have a power like that, would you? [He looks so excited by this prospect. Two birds with one stone!!]
tatatarata: (pic#7053939)

[personal profile] tatatarata 2014-09-07 05:17 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah...nothing like that at all, actually.
drawitagain: (43)

[personal profile] drawitagain 2014-09-07 05:21 am (UTC)(link)
[He laughs somewhat apologetically that he even asked.]

Oh really? Hehe, darn! It was a long shot, but I couldn't help myself!

While we're on the subject, would you feel comfortable sharing what yours is with me?
tatatarata: (pic#7053759)

[personal profile] tatatarata 2014-09-07 05:33 am (UTC)(link)
I can control technology. Sort of.
drawitagain: (1)

[personal profile] drawitagain 2014-09-07 05:39 am (UTC)(link)
...That sounds really cool! [Haruka's eyes light up like he's looking at a superhero.]

How so?
tatatarata: (pic#7053876)

[personal profile] tatatarata 2014-09-07 05:54 am (UTC)(link)
I have to kind of, uh...put myself into it.
drawitagain: (50)

[personal profile] drawitagain 2014-09-07 05:56 am (UTC)(link)
[You've lost him.]

Put yourself into it?

Like...a USB?
tatatarata: (Default)

[personal profile] tatatarata 2014-09-07 06:02 am (UTC)(link)
...Take out your phone.
drawitagain: (41)

[personal profile] drawitagain 2014-09-07 06:07 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, okay...[He pulls out a bright yellow iphone.]

What do I do next?
tatatarata: (pic#7193865)

[personal profile] tatatarata 2014-09-07 07:02 am (UTC)(link)
Keep an eye on it.

[And with that, Takane loses consciousness and her body falls to the ground.]
